Front Page Qualifications:This is not a section, so please do not place it in your event thread, but please read it as a guideline on details.

Not every event will wind up on the front page. This is not because your event is not important. If staff feel that the event is large enough and planned well enough to be placed on the front page, it will go there. You must request a front page placement with a CM for it to be eligible. If it belongs on the front page, it will be placed there. If you have followed the above guide, and your event is correctly organized and shows good planning, your chances of getting front page consideration are much higher.

I don't think they'll be stickied, but this post says to ask the CM's about it.
